The two films I did with Billy Wilder, Double Indemnity (1944) and the The Apartment (1960), are the only two parts I did in my entire career that required any acting.
Fred MacMurray
For the last 20 years of my life, I`ve been wearing something unrecognizable. I`ve been acting for 20 years now and I`ve been under the radar. I was completely under the radar until Hellboy came along. And I did notable roles before, Billy Butcherson in H...

[on New Zealand:] "I will go back ... I think Bill [Billy Boyd] and Dom [Dominic Monaghan)]and I are thinking of buying a house together. We don`t want to lose our connection with New Zealand - I love the country and I love Wellington and I want to go bac...
Elijah Wood
[on his friendship with Billy Boyd, Elijah Wood, and Orlando Bloom:] "We all look after each other and support each other. Billy and I went down to Mexico to see Orlando Bloom when he was working on Troy (2004), we went to see Billy in a play, and I went ...

[On Billy Crudup] "I can tell you the actor who I admire the most. Billy Crudup. Do you know who he is? He`s awesome. I actually played his younger version in the movie Sleepers. He`s done some incredible work and every time a movie of his comes up they s...

On working with Robin Williams and Billy Crystal: "These guys are hilarious. You go in to work with the lines memorized, and the second you get out there it`s like - Oops, there goes the script! They`re rewriting it, improvising on the spot and I have to ...
Charlie Hofheimer
I can understand why everyone sees me as Billy Elliot; it was the first thing I did, so I was determined to take the most diverse route possible. It wasn`t to annoy people, but it seems to have upset so many people.
Jamie Bell
[about a game called "Tig" made up as a prank on Elijah Wood early in the shooting of "The Lord of the Rings":] "So we -- the three of us [Billy Boyd, Monaghan, and Sean Astin] -- were constantly getting it right. And every time Elijah tried a new way of ...
Dominic Monaghan
[On playing an aging Jewish Shopkeeper in the upcoming _Waterproof (1999)_]: It`s a real challenge. I just hope Billy Crystal doesn`t get P.O.`d.
Burt Reynolds
I live in a town where if you`re a woman over 40, you`re really passé. In the movies a Sean Connery can get Catherine Zeta-Jones as a love interest. But Shirley MacLaine can`t have Billy Crudup as a boyfriend.

Recording with Billy May is like having a bucket of cold water thrown into your face. Nelson Riddle will come to a session with all the arrangements carefully and neatly worked out beforehand. With Billy you sometimes don`t get copies of the next number u...

Dominic Monaghan
[on Kris Kristofferson] I like Kris because he writes poetry and he`s a fucking good man. Working with Kris on Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid (1973) was one of the great experiences of my life.
Sam Peckinpah
[on her split from husband Billy Bob Thornton] I`m angry. I`m sad. It`s a very difficult and sad time. It was a real deep connection, a deep marriage, so it`s not that simple to say this or that one thing caused the problems. It`s clear to me that our pri...
Angelina Jolie
[on Billy Wilder] I`ve had directors who were marvelous at breaking scenes down and handling people. But when you would string all the pearls together, they wouldn`t make a beautiful necklace. But Billy is the kind of picture-maker who can make a beautifu...

I look in the mirror and I go: you`re a rock star? It`s funny I don`t look like a rock star, I don`t walk around thinking like a rock star. I`m just this shmegdorf walking around and somebody confronts me and goes BILLY JOEL! and I`m like: Right, I`m that...
Billy Joel
Like Billy [his character in "Neighbours" (1985)], my dad is a GP and my two eldest brothers are, too. If I wasn`t acting, I would have definitely gone into medicine, too. It`s totally fascinating.
Jesse Spencer
On "Fathers` Day": "This is the first time I`ve ever been in California, and working with Billy and Robin day in and day out -- what can I say? When I was auditioning I didn`t let myself think about getting the part; just auditioning could blow your mind....

Billy Zane is someone that I met and is a fellow artist, and sometimes we work together, painting, however pretentious that might sound. It was really quite simple, though. We would just spend time together, hanging out, listening to music, or painting. W...
Marilyn Manson
[on the importance of rehearsal for Thirteen (2003)] : I mean, some movies I walk in, "Hi, nice to meet you", we get in bed and we do a love scene. And that does happen. That happened with me with Billy Crudup on Jesus` Son (1999). Actors talk about that ...
Holly Hunter
[on Shirley MacLaine] She hated rehearsals and had a bad habit of ad-libbing, which didn`t set well with Billy Wilder. But we got used to each other, because mainly she`s a helluva girl.
Jack Lemmon
[On if she ever caught her husband Billy Bob Thornton cheating] I`ve told Billy if I ever caught him cheating, I wouldn`t kill him because I love his children and they need a dad. But I would beat him up. I know where all of his sports injuries are. And I...
